چکیده

Projection algorithms such as multidimensional scaling are often used to visualize high-dimensional data. However, when attempting to interpret the visualization of the resulting 2D projection, users are faced with artifacts. This poster introduces ProxiViz: an interactive technique to provide better insights about the original data-space. Primary results of a controlled experiment show that ProxiViz is significantly more effective than the baseline projection techniques for a visual clustering task.

Visualizing Dimensionality Reduction Artifacts: An Evaluation

Multidimensional scaling allows visualizing high-dimensional data as 2D maps with the premise that insights in 2D reveal valid information in high-dimensions, but the resulting projections always suffer from artifacts such as false neighborhoods and tears. These artifacts can be revealed by interactively coloring the projection according to the original dissimilarities relative to a reference i...

ProxiLens: Interactive Exploration of High-Dimensional Data using Projections

As dimensionality increases, analysts are faced with difficult problems to make sense of their data. In exploratory data analysis, multidimensional scaling projections can help analyst to discover patterns by identifying outliers and enabling visual clustering. However to exploit these projections, artifacts and interpretation issues must be overcome. We present ProxiLens, a semantic lens which...

XGvis: Interactive Data Visualization with Multidimensional Scaling

We discuss interactive techniques for multidimensional scaling (MDS) and a system, named \XGvis", that implements these techniques. MDS is a method for visualizing proximity data, that is, data where objects are characterized by dissimilarity values for all pairs of objects. MDS constructs maps of these objects in IR k by interpreting the dissimilarities as distances. MDS in its conventional ba...

An interactive parallel coordinates technique applied to a tropical cyclone climate analysis

A highly interactive visual analysis system is presented that is based on an enhanced variant of parallel coordinates – a multivariate information visualization technique. The system combines many variations of previously described visual interaction techniques such as dynamic axis scaling, conjunctive visual queries, statistical indicators, and aerial perspective shading. The system capabiliti...

Interactive Visualization of Hierarchical Clusters Using MDS and MST

In this paper, we discuss interactively visualizing hierarchical clustering using multidimensional scaling (MDS) and the minimal spanning tree (MST). We can examine the sequential process leading to agglomerative or divisive hierarchical clustering, compare the di erent agglomerative methods, and detect in uential observations better than is possible with dendrograms.
